ABSTRACT
A suspension of the MacPherson strut type is one of the most frequently used suspension
systems in passenger cars. A compact structure is an advantage of this type of suspension.
A change to the steering angle and camber as a result of shock absorption is a disadvantage.
These changes have an impact on driving safety. This article presents a new solution of the
vehicle suspension including its analysis. This suspension possesses the advantages of the
MacPherson strut which is a compact and simple structure. In the suspension proposed, the
steering angle change being the result of shock absorption has been totally eliminated.
